Myanmar should adopt the Malaya Bumiputra/Non-Bumiputra principle with modifications to suit the Bengali Refugees.
Similarly the proposal by Bangladesh to require sterilisation should be applied to keep the Bengali Rohingyas breeding out of proportions.

Reply to this commentif Myanmar is to accept Bengali Rohingya Muslims back, they should be classified something similar to the Malaysian Non-Bumiputra classification with conditions peculiar to Myanmar, especially the question of birth control.
Also the repatriation of the Bengalis that entered Myanmar during 2 events in Bangladesh of 1970/71 & 1975

The Burmese Government must listen to native local peoples' voice. Government has duty to listen and fulfill their wished.
The local Buddhist peoples' voice has been ignored by UN and International Human Rights organizations and blamed everything on Buddhists for conflict between two communities. The real victims are local Buddhist peoples and not Bengali Muslims. The Buddhist villagers were robbed, murdered and raped by Bengali Muslims for many years. They have been tolerated and hosting those illegal immigrant Bengali Muslims from Bangladesh. However, the UN and International Human Rights organizations are accusing Buddhist peoples as aggressors and attacked on the Bengali Muslim peoples. Neither side can guarantee there will be no crashed between Buddhists and Bengali Muslims in future because the Bengali Muslims’ goal was to establish independent the Islamic State in Northern Rakhine State by begin with UN monitor’s Safe Zone.
The ARSA wills more active in Rakhine State in future because it supporters in Middle-East will give more money to buy weapons to the ARSA. The Middle-East Arab Governments will do everything for to root Islamic terrorist the ARSA group in Rakhine State, Burma.
It was obviously if you look at current the Rakhine conflict. Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussien had used his UN OHCHR’s power to put pressure on Burmese Government at UN General Conference and UN Security Council. However, it wasn’t 100% successes because the Islamic terrorist group the ARSA committing serious crime of mass killing of Hindu villagers was uncovered just before the UNSC meeting was start. The Arab Governments didn’t give up and they pressured US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson to take action against Burma. The French Government was already bowed to the Arab Governments demand for to take action against Burmese Government and Military. Those all countries have big business interest in Middle-East. Thus, they don’t hesitate for to throw innocent Burmese Government under the wheels. There’s no faire go policy in this world today. Even the UN Secretary General was not neutral at all.
Burma is poor country and most of resources were sold out or stolen by former dictator Gen Than Shwe and the former President Thein Sein and their families and cronies.
However, Burmese peoples will survive if the Western Governments imposed economic sanction on Burma.
The Arab Governments lead OIC pressured to the EU, US, Canada and UK Governments
to impose economy sanction against Burma will destroy chance of coexistence two Buddhists and Bengali Muslim communities in Rakhine State.
The Bengali Muslim population needs to control once they came back to Rakhine State. The Bengali Muslim men have more than one wife and as much as 18 children in one family. The Bengali Muslim was not minority community in Rakhine State.
Also, the international media have unfairly treated to Buddhists in Burma and the Burmese Government. They were so biased against Buddhists. The international reporters are addicting to negative information and they are going after easy meal feeding by the Bengali Muslim group rather than reporting the fact.
Anyway, they should check themselves whether they still have integrity or not. If they still believed in truth and fair go for everyone and then they have time to redeem their mistake.
